Ghostbusters C64 [Intro]

[@1978rharris]

Someone forgot to press the spacebar on the “Ghostbusters” bit!!! 😂😂😂

[@soapy7261]

*D A N G I T*

[@Thalon2]

Not too bad, though. Because the "Ghostbusters" call you could get when pressing space did not fit the music. Was awesome, though.

[@peterkanzow6500]

Best intro at the time, closest to the actual song. I did not believe that with this primitive synth, you could get that close!

[@shadowchasernql]

And then we got some EPIC sid tunes in the late '80s... 'cept that was all rave/techno and after a little bit you get sick of it...

[@Mark73]

You could make the game yell "Ghostbusters!" by pressing the space bar, which I always did on the "Ghostbusters" line.

[@soapy7261]

Me too

[@basicallysnake]

Can someone upload a video of this? I don’t have a c64 and I can’t find any videos of it.

[@shadowchasernql]

Huh. I would always just sit around and wait for it to say it. If you had told me that there was a way to make it go "Ghostbusters!" on command, I 100% would have done it.

[@venkman80]

[@johnarmstrong4329]

My son played this on the C64. Dam music played the entire time!

[@fernando.liozzi.41878]

The best karaoke in C64!!!!!

[@shadowchasernql]

I love how even with the karaoke version, like as in an INSTRUMENTAL chiptune cover, there's still a VERY NOTICABLE spike in replays at the "Bustin' makes me feel good" part. Like this isn't small enough to be an anomaly. Maybe it's just people liking how the SID cover sounds at that bit, but my intuition tells me otherwise. It's at around 3:05 in the song, if you want to know.

[@Knute360cool]

Seeing a game made by Activision and said game having no lootboxes is honestly really jarring...

[@oh2446]

Wait til you hear about the futuristic years of 1990-2006.

[@coopermuccio4409]

gaming culture has changed so much

[@X2011racer]

Well, this game is quite bad. It's just that this version is nowhere near as bad as the NES version. You want something worse from Activision, look no further than Super Pitfall!

[@shadowchasernql]

Game's still rubbish though. Nostalgia really blinds doesn't it?

[@koryandrews1665]

​@@shadowchasernqlit's better than the NES version. I played the hell out of this as a kid.

[@henrycoolen4628]

Love those old commodore synth noises, brings back memories to childhood

[@Miyamoto_Jim]

Danny dancing to this at age 8 brought me here ;.)

[@Djerique]

Do you have a link to that?

@@Djerique no footage of that taken, just them talking about it in a story years back lol -probably in a ghost busters game episode

[@shadowchasernql]

schoodly doodly my man

[@judymaggs4354]

why did I let my husband get rid of our old Commodore????? this game was SO difficult but I used to love playing it just to listen to this - thanks for sharing!!!

[@Certifiable]

Sometimes the timing is lucky. Our family decided to sell our C64 to a local family. It DIED on them! 😐 (This was the 90s and there were no shenanigans, just a very loved C64 we would rather re-home than bin!)

[@Mark73]

There are emulators you can download.

[@schlumbl84]

The Mini C64 is out. I have one. You can load your own ROMs on it.

[@andreassauerlander9136]

I already own my C64. But my parents sold all the floppy disks at the flea market🙄

[@shadowchasernql]

@@andreassauerlander9136 oh COME ON! Why sell those? they have ZERO worth basically! I mean at a flea market.

[@neilarcher2551]

The first tape game I ever loaded on my C64.

[@soapy7261]

Wait Did it come on Cassett?

[@andrew81au]

@@soapy7261 Certain markets games came on cassette tapes, Australia being one market.

[@shadowchasernql]

I sort of wish they snuck this in as a B-side on a cassette single of the Ghostbusters theme. Like imagine popping this BANGER (or should I say BUSTER?) of a song into your C64, only to have it load up this game! Man if I was in charge....

[@rhysmetcalf614]

Yes and few months later dad bought disk drive back in 1985 can't remember i still have it ​@soapy7261

[@97channel]

Instinct triggers my reflexes to hit the space bar on my laptop every time the lyrics reach "Ghostbusters!".

[@shadowchasernql]

Ghostbusters!

[@alexkelly6449]

Tbh the voice clip in this version is better than the nes version

[@shadowchasernql]

But this is more nostalgic. I remember playing this game on my C64 as a mere hatchling, didn't even watch the movie yet. ...in the 2000s. Yeah, I was a weird kid.

[@JB2X-Z]

Oh wow, it was its own little karaoke screen. That's fuckin neato.

[@shadowchasernql]

Probably one of the best parts of the game.

[@wdwnutjm]

my husband (then boyfriend) bought me this game- could never master how to play it but I LOVED this intro! wish we still had our Commodore

[@rhysmetcalf614]

I still have it fopply drive, commodore and an commodore printer alone 487 fopply disks all for games and printshop too

[@powerdude_dk]

I own this game, and it's even more awesome on your own tv !!

[@shadowchasernql]

I could only imagine...

[@maikmlc1139]

wowwwwwwwwwww best sonds ever...will never forget

[@shadowchasernql]

Superb audio from a somewhat mid game.

[@The_Cheeky_Gentleman]

I remember pressing the spacebar at the right time on this intro and breaking many joysticks over the fact that this game is unbeatable...

[@koryandrews1665]

I never did beat it either. I don't think you could beat it unless you had a code that gave you extra money to start with.

[@brucelombardo]

@@koryandrews1665 at 1000 psychic energy, you stop moving the joystick or interacting with the game. You are then taken to the final boss.

[@shadowchasernql]

@@brucelombardo really?

[@brucelombardo]

@@shadowchasernql when the city PKE meter or whatever hits 1k, don’t touch anything. Literally let it play for five minutes, and you meet Gozer.

[@antdude]

Better than Apple 2's version. A story, I recorded it onto a casette tape, and I would listen to it a lot. LOL!

[@RJARRRPCGP]

Speaking of Apple II, (or Apple III?) there was a good version of the old Donkey Kong, long before Donkey Kong Country of 1994! Because before 1994 coincidentally, I was in a school that mostly had Apple computers and most of them were Apple IIs, followed by Apple IIgs-es and/or Apple IIIs. They had some Macintoshes, but the classrooms seemed to not get them usually.

[@shadowchasernql]

There was an Apple-II version?

[@antdude]

@@shadowchasernql Yup! kzbin.info/www/bejne/i3mkf3qDos-phq8 ;)

[@r.j.etrogames]

Now we know where the terrible NES sound byte came from. I guess they really had to compress it on there. It sounds WAY better here. The powers of the SID chip!

[@shadowchasernql]

Behold!

[@ohiopower]

Gotta love the sid chip

[@shadowchasernql]

Me too!

[@athraf]

SImply the best gameplay and music x c64 .... forever !!!

[@shadowchasernql]

I'd say as far as games go, however, Turrican has to be on top. As far as music, for me, this game is still the best.

Ok while this game was REAMS better than the NES one, (hot take incoming) this one kind of sucked too. Like it was OK, and at least you couldn't say it was poorly made, but it just wasn't fun. Especially for such a big movie.

[@MrHarco77]

this is my jam. hit the space bar for GHOSTBUSTERS

[@shadowchasernql]

Really?

[@cobr3n]

Loved this game!!

it would have been a lot better if it was just a tape with this intro song on it. Seriously though, if I could go back in time and warn my past self not to buy this game...

I hope Forza Horizon 5 or Forza Motorsport 8 has and uses a 1959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor Sentinel limo. That 1959 Cadillac deserves a fully race upgraded mod engine with twin turbos and custom 4-speed racing transmission reaching its fastest possible top speed.

Sega Master System's music killed this version's! However this version blows the NES's music out of the water!

[@lockone1977]

The SMS-version is out of tune half the time, a very strange rendition.

[@f.k.b.16]

@@lockone1977 Yeah there is one part on the SMS that sounds more like ambulance sirens going down the road than music but I think that is why I liked it because a good portion of the game was when they were driving that converted ambulance all over town so I guess it kicked in my childish imagination into thinking, "Wouldn't it be cool to see an ambulance going down the street playing this music!?" But you're not wrong either lol!
